ALL aircraft have a predetermined lifetime flying hour limit and LTO cycles (landing and takeoff) limit when they leave the factory.
Would you care to cite the appropriate section of the FARs, or some equivalent source, to back up that statement?

The F15, KC135, A10 have all had structural integrity issues due to age.
